Nathan Talks Film

Sicario: Day of the Soldado is directed by Stefano Sollima, and stars Benicio del Toro, Josh Brolin, Isabela Moner, Jeffrey Donovan, Elijah Rodriguez, and Catherine Keener. Plot The drug war on the U.S.-Mexico border has escalated as the cartels have begun trafficking terrorists across the US border. To fight the war, federal agent Matt Graver re-teams with the mercurial Alejandro. Review Movie's been out for almost a month, so I'm talking spoilers. Why exactly did we need a Sicario sequel? Don't get me wrong, I liked it, but Sicario didn't need a sequel. One thing I was wondering about was how they were going to do this movie without Emily Blunt? After watching it, there's really nowhere to put her in the story. Just like the first movie, it's a pretty brutal movie, there's a scene in the beginning with a supermarket bombing. There is more than that though, there's one character who talks about killing one of his enemies' mother and fe...

Yes, I know I've been gone. Sicario is directed by Denis Villeneuve, and stars Emily Blunt, Benicio del Toro, Josh Brolin, Daniel Kaluuya, and Jon Bernthal. Plot When drug violence worsens on the USA Mexico border, the FBI sends an idealistic agent, Kate Macer (Emily Blunt) on a mission to eradicate a drug cartel responsible for a bomb that had killed members of her team. Review I don't really know where to start with this. I guess I could start by saying that this is the second Denis Villeneuve film I've seen, the only other one being Blade Runner 2049, which if you read my ranking of 2017, you'd know it was my second favorite film of last year. I haven't seen anything else by him like Prisoners or Arrival . I do want to point out that this can be a pretty bleak film, and it's not a very happy one either. In the opening, you see decomposing bodies hidden inside the wall of a house and the property is rigged with explosives, there's a scene where...

This is another one of my Spoiler Talks but this time it's for Ant-Man and the Wasp. One thing I want to get out of the way are the credits scenes. The mid-credits scene ties into Avengers: Infinity War with Scott going into the Quantum Realm and Hank, Janet, and Hope are supposed to bring him back after five seconds, but during the countdown, he loses contact with them, and it cuts back to our world and they've just disintegrated at the result of Thanos' snap, leaving Scott alone in the Quantum Realm. The post credits scene is Scott's house, no one there, an emergency test pattern on the TV. Deserted. And then we get the giant ant that fills Scott's place playing electronic drums. It was in the trailer. If you're editing a trailer, don't put the post credits scene in there. I want to talk about the villain, Ghost. If she can fade in and out of solid matter and can pass through solid matter, why haven't we seen her before? If she was around before ...

Ant-Man and the Wasp is directed by Peyton Reed and stars Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas, Michael Peña, Lawrence Fishburne, Hannah John-Kamen, Walton Goggins, and Michelle Pfeiffer. Plot In the aftermath of Captain America: Civil War , Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) grapples with the consequences of his choices as both a superhero and a father. As he struggles to re-balance his home life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man, he's confronted by Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) and Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) with an urgent new mission. Scott must once again put on the suit and learn to fight alongside The Wasp as the team works together to uncover secrets from their past. Review This movie is probably the most fun MCU movie of 2018, but it's probably my least favorite MCU movie of 2018. It's still really fun though. I think it was probably a good idea to release it at this time, like they were trying to cheer us up after Avengers: Infinity War . I think that...
